[Bug 1382466] Re: Greeter lock timeout can be reset by rebooting device

 

i suspect unity8 is simply reading this value, suppose it may not be
persisting in the backend

Title:
  Greeter lock timeout can be reset by rebooting device

Status in “ubuntu-system-settings” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “unity8” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  14.09-proposed image #113

  STEPS:
  1. Ensure passphrase is set.
  2. Lock device.
  3. At locked greeter, attempt to unlock using incorrect passphrase 7 times until 'Device Locked' notice is displayed. This displays a 5 minute timeout before device can be unlocked again.
  4. Reboot device straight away.
  5. At locked greeter attempt to unlock device again.

  EXPECTED:
  The lock period should persist after reboot so it is not possible to unlock the device until the timeout period has expired.

  ACTUAL:
  The lock period is removed, so it is possible to unlock (or attempt to unlock) device immediately after reboot.
